Cool Seth Mint

Old English cōl, of low temperature — used as a color modifier as the complement to warm. Cool gray, cool blue: the optical impression of a slight blue-green shift, even within otherwise warm or neutral hues. Sits across the crisp, hushed, pale, and neutral buckets.

Egyptian Set, god-of-storms-and-desert-chaos. As a color modifier, seth implies a desert-storm-and-chaos-god quality, the visual register of Egyptian-Seth-and-Ombos-temple hand-desert-storm-and-chaos-god Egyptian-Seth-and-Ombos-temple-and-Osirian-conflict seth-and-desert-storm-and-chaos-god surfaces under Egyptian-Seth-and-Ombos-temple-and-Osirian-conflict Western-Desert-and-storm-cloud red-desert-storm-light. Sits at the modifier-and-myth end of the grid, parallel to horus and ptah in usage.

The genus Mentha — peppermint, spearmint, apple mint, water mint — the cooling herb whose menthol gives it that quality at the molecular level. The color refers to fresh peppermint leaves before drying: a clean, slightly cool green with the matte finish of trichome-rich leaf surface. Lighter than basil, cooler than parsley, with the mojito-and-Pimm's association of a herb tied to summer drinks across two continents.
